hmm, honestly i always tell ppl i am 602 pounds.mostly cuz i am bigger and don't care.there is no way i am even close to that but, i get rid of the losers, who hit on me fast.
as for why girls do it, lets see here is the only place where they can say it and ppl would never know who they are or anything. they don't have to lessen the pounds they can say what they are and not have to worry about anyone knowing who they really are.
besides most women worry about their weight, society has made us that way , with barbies, models who fit the 5% of what ppl can look like normally.and even some of those models use drugs to make themselves look that way.
btw for the record some ppl are anxeric , who weight like 101 pounds and are tall and think they are fat.so looking in the mirror doesn't help them.
also u get 2 girls on the bus calling u fat, even if you aren't, u begin to doubt yourself, and if u have no boyfriend to ask, i guess here being a safe place is better then nothing.
i know u are probly looking for the answer cuz they want complements or cuz they can't deal with issues etc , and why can't they just look in a mirror.but the truth is sometimes we are blind to ourselves in the mirror and ask others.

Because girls aren't happy with the way they are. Some do it to make themselves feel better, and some to give themselves another reason to be mad (depressed girls). The whole weight issue is stupid, it is just a number.
For example, it is impossible to tell if a 150 pound person is fat or not. If she was 7 feet tall then she is way to skinny. Also, muscle weighs much more than fat (it is more dense), so a female body builder might weigh 250 pounds at 5'8", but she could have 3% body fat. These theoretical women are not fat, they might be intimidating, but not fat.
The important thing is to be happy with the way you are. If you are healthy (not dying of obesity or malnutrition), then relax about it. If it is just the number you are worried about weigh yourself in kg or slugs (lb->mass unit), a 220 lb person would be only 100kg and only 6.9 slugs!
Also, to the girls who think that you need to look like the movie stars with your bones sticking out everywhere to impress guys, think again. Hourglass with nice curves = thumbs up, walking skeleton = definitely not thumbs up ;).

God, I couldn't agree more with you on this! My guess is that they know they carry a few pounds too many, but are hoping that guys will tell them their weight is within the normal range, thus providing them with proof that they don't need to lose. It's a strange mentality, but people like to fool themselves that way. Some people just can't be honest with themselves. Or haven't you ever met girls who blame their weight on "big bones"? Also, everyone looks different, and unless you post a picture, no one will ever tell you if look good with your current weight. Numbers don't mean much, in my opinion.

I agree with the final statement/question. I think the most important thing is if you are happy with the way you are yourself. Don't let others define who you are or what you should look like. There's enough peer pressure already without actively seeking it out if you ask me.
Oh and I'd venture to put in that not all men are into skinny girls either.
All things taken into account: don't worry, be happy.

Because society focuses too much on looks and weight. Its disgusting the way that everyone puts such an importance on it. I think that people should stop comparing themselves to airbrushed models and movie stars and bulimic brainless celbutantes such as Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie. 90 pounds is not healthy!!!! Girls should be happy with who they are, not what they weigh!

Yes, you are so right! That's what I always think, most guys have little clue about girls' weights and should try to answer, because they can give these girls a complex.
Take care : )

Because they're insecure and want the approval of men.
